  1. In this passage:

    pronouns: what, it, who, that, thou, her, my

    prepositions: through, with, of

    adjectives: yonder, more

    adverbs: far, yet

    verbs: is, art, knew, were

    article: the

    nouns: east, Juliet, grief, maid, lady, love, nothing

    conjunctions: that, than

    interjection: oh


  2. what you have there are nouns, pronouns, and being verbs

  3. Get out your old trusty dictionary and look them up.  However, you have to know the context of each, that is how the words are used in a sentence.  Some words are always just one part of speech (e.g. it is always a pronoun and of is always a preposition).  However, love can be a noun (She is in love.), or an adjective (He is a love child.) or a verb (They love each other.)
